He filled the vacancy created when Mr. Joseph Nesbit was ap- pointed superintendent after the death of Mr. Tom Foraker. The school board met on the first and third Thursday of each month. The pres- ident ofthe board, Mr. Bill Wall, was as- sisted in his tasks by Vice-President Dr. Bruce Buie. Other assistance was given by Paul Province, treasurer, and Mildred Harness, secretary. Other members in- cluded Richard Schultz, Paul Kamitsuka, Jeanne Freeman, and Robert Blaylock. 1 Front row, left to right: Robert Blaylock, Paul Kamitsuka, Bruce Buie.

He was promoted to principal after Mr. Blaine Steck was named Assistant Superintendent of Administration. Assisting Mr. Cattle were Assisting Prin- cipals Mr. Kenneth Burkhart and Mr. Michael Boothe. Mr. Burkhart had juniors and seniors to work with, while Mr. Bootheis main concern was with the soph- omores. Mr. Boothe has been a part of RHS for eight years as an American His- tory teacher. He believes education is what's happeningv and with the help of Mrs. Cattle and Mr. Burkhart he intends to show this to the students. 1 Nobody said this job was going to be easy, says Mr. Boothe. 2 Mr. Burkhart reviews sched- ules. 3 Mr. Cattle plans for the future. 4 Mr. Cattle gets a promotion and keeps his smile. 5 Sure you can have my autograph, says Mr. Boothe. 6 It has to be here somewhere, states Mrs. Gfeller.

They were always there to aid in directions to rooms, dates of activi- ties, and many other facts that students wanted to know, but most important, they kept things organized. An addition to the office was a part- time secretary, Miss Cheryl McKinney. Cheryl came in after third hour to aid the secretaries in the daily tasks that they per- formed. Mrs. Pat Prouty, secretary to the prin- cipal, handled anything from formal letters to money matters for Mr. Cattle. Mrs. Rusty Gfeller, secondary school secretary, took care of anything dealing with schedules, grade cards, and mail, to answering phone calls and numerous typ- ing tasks. Mrs. lee Flippen, secondary school office clerk, kept up with registration, ab- sentees, and permanent records. If Emmy or Grammy awards were given for the ideal secretaries, these three ladies would be the best recipients. 1 You requisitioned how much money?', ques- tions Mrs. Prouty. 2 'gBeing an office secretary sure takes getting use to!', says Cheryl Mc- Kinney. 3 Registration has got to be one of the most time-consuming things I do, decides Mrs. Flippen. 4 The daily absentee lists just keep getting longer, sighs Mrs. Flippen. 5 After long and tedious work on IBM cards, Mrs. Gfeller takes a phone break.

Addztwn Auls Counselors Phones ringing off the Wall, masses of students revising appointments, and mis- understanding about schedule changes, the personal service department considers these dilemmas a thing of the past, thanks to Mrs. Katie Grossnickle, the counselors new secretary. Mrs. Grossnickle, who has worked previously in the district at various jobs, likes this one best. It helps me manage my time better and I love it,', elaborates Mrs, Grossnickle. Mrs. Marjorie Langford, Mr. William Nicholson, Mr. Charles Hoskins, Mr. Calvin Crawford, and Mrs. Lavanda Booth all agree that she is a welcome additon to the department. Not only emotional, but physical aid is offered in the personal service department. Mrs. Dorothy Wright, the school nurse, com- pleted her 15th year of aspirin and band- aid surgery. 1 Mrs. Langford and Mrs. Grossnickle verify ap- pointments. 2 '4What time does my arm say, Mrs. Wright? asks Joey Birchard. 3 The coun- selors' work goes on 4. . .and on 5 . . . and on. 6 Mrs. Booth changes an unhappy student's schedule Person al Services 17 ...J v ' -N ' 1 w Q . sg - Q 4 Q , ks-'Q N -me 5 ' V - -- f - - f h. 1, . r+,,xx,,, X asf, Q ' 'Rx N N ' ,J K gh Q, X .rx r xxx 5 ,Vs ss xg 4. be . x mp, YQ SSW if x sr ss S, 3 K Q. 2 X5 'ir 'Thx qv X X f .

W ff .n I Big Department Big Plans Versatile', is scarcely an elastic-enough word to describe the eight-member Eng- lish Department. Offering over 21 courses, the department is the second largest area of study in the curriculum at Ruskin. The instructors teach a variety of courses from Basic English to American Humorists. Department members attended a dis- trict wide workshop and were introduced to new writing techniques by Dr. Ben Nelms, professor at University of Missouri at Columbia. Miss Mary Haney, yearbook adviser, stated I think the semester classes are really too short for a course that involves intensive Study, Miss Fran Libra, who joined the staff last spring from M.U., added, I don,t think the school system has enough of the 'basics,, there should be and English class for each year of study. Mrs. Jean Gelsinger, departmental head, voices her opinions in this quote by Mark Twain: When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explainedf' Although the English Department ex- pects perfection in their casts of hundreds, there are moments of alight-hearted hu- mor, as Miss Benny Searcy jests, I believe that on a range from one to ten the Eng- lish Department ranks a strong nine on the Richtor Scale of lnsanityf, 1 Mrs. Crawford catches up on paper work. 2 Miss Searcy gets a kick out of English. 3 Miss Belden, are your parents really Mr. and Mrs. John Doe? 4 Mr. Abram indulges in after-school studies. 5 Mrs. Gelsinger recites her lesson for the day. 6 Miss Haney crops pictures to make the yearbook deadline. 7 Miss Rose starts the day with a 'lColgatc smile. 8 A happy begin- ning for Miss Libra.

The Math Department continued to ex- pand as Algebra teacher Mr. James Lloyd took on a Geometry class. Previously Geo metry was taught exclusively by Mr. Max Hoskin. Algebra I enrollment increased as one more class was added for a total of . six. Mr. Ernest Hester, department coordi- nator, said, Students are becoming more involved in math, and are becoming more interested in careers it may lead to. As science career opportunities increas- ed, students saw reason to enroll in such classes as Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. Mr. Charles Maupin headed the relatively small Science Department and commented We haven't gone to mini-courses, semes- ter courses, like many of the departments have. Our biggest problem is getting everything taught in two semesters. 7 1 Mr. Hayman gives a chalk talk on the complex- ities of division. 2 Mr. Hester explains that Physics isn't really that hard, if you know what you're doing. 3 Mr. Lloyd shows Wanda Ben- nett the principles of mathematics. 4 Mr. Allen listens to another fishy excuse. 5 Mr. Chism takes on an anti-bald student. 6 Who threw the compass? asks Mr. Hoskin.

Mr. Michael Boothe, last year's chairman, took the position of assistant principal. One ofthe chairman's tasks is to keep close com- munication with other schools. The other task is correlating high school and jr. high school social studies. When Mr. Reynolds was asked how he liked his new position, he replied, There could be a great many improvements made in the department, and I feel through working with various levels of the department the improvement can be a reality this year. l Mr. Yocum lectures on the Third Reich. 2 Never start the car while I'm in it, demands Mr. Partridge. 3 'iDid you lose your hall pass again, Tony? asks Mr. Donnell 4 He went that away, exclaims Mr. Reynolds. 5 So Joe isn't here again, exclaims Mr. Bias.

Everywhere you look-machines. Rusk- in's Business Department is possibly Rusk- inis best-equipped department. It is also Ruskinis fastest growing de- partment. The Business Department's popularity is due to its large variety of courses, and its practicality. Mr. Arch Wrisinger, department coordinator, em- phasized the department's three-fold im- portance: The Business Department pre- pares the student in one of three ways, either by giving the student the opportu- nity to work while still in school, prepar- ing him for a career, or for personal use of business in the outside worldf' Many of Ruskin's business students are involved in the Office Occupations voca- tional program, and they are able to use their talents in employment around the entire Kansas City area while still in school. Business department career students prepare students for future jobs ranging from accountants, to secretaries and steno- graphers. New among the business teachers was Mrs. Donna Leker. She taught many of the basic business courses, such as personal typing, business law, and consumer eco- nomics. Mrs. Leker said, The basic business courses aren't career oriented, but they are to the personal benefit of every student. Through them a student can learn to file his own tax forms, keep his own budget, type his own materials, and get his person- al knowledge of how laws operate in the business worldf, 1 Are Mr. Wrisingeris tastes as finicky as Mor- risi? 2 Be careful! Mrs. Maupin is always watch- ing you. 3 Mr. Bates shows how to use a text book. 4 You couldn't have typed 80 words a minute, says Mrs. Capron. 5 Mr. Boone is once again amazed by his students. 6 Mrs. Leker was all smiles in her first year at Ruskin.

A member of the class of 1971, Mr. Chandler played football and was coached by Mr. Noland and Mr. Partridge. This year he joined them in their coaching efforts for Ruskinls football team. Before coming to Ruskin, Mr. Chandler taught at Belton for one year. The chairman of Industrial Arts, Mr. Moore, organizes courses and oversees other activities relating to the department. His attitude toward the courses offered was one of optimism and he feels that over the past few years the department has and will continue to improve. He would like to see a new class offered: Experimental Crafts, teaching basic uses of woods, leather and plastics. 1 Mr. Chandler forces a smile at the end ofthe day. 2 My fellow Americans . . . 3 Mr. Bodcn- hamer combines brains and braun in his every- day skills. 4 Mr. Moore relies on books as a teaching aide. 5 Mr. Swaffer conducts his classes in symphony. 6 Mr. Noland gets bored in a sticky situation, Trl EDM Glue Industrial Arts 31 ...QA Q.

Maybe they could if they were enrolled in the newest class added to the Home Eco- nomics Department, Personal Culture. This course dealt with clothing care and the grooming of the body. This class was taught by Miss Cheryl Tissell. Two new teachers were added to the department: Mrs. Judy Washam who taught Contemporary Living, Foods I and llg and Miss Ginger Varns who stu- dent taught for Mrs. Glenna Callen. Mrs. Horton, the department manager, feels that more boys are getting concerned about personal appearance and home- making in general. 1 Miss Varns shows Teresa Jones the main topic in the chapter. 2 Mrs. Horton hears a who! 3 Mrs. Callen tallies grades. 4 Sometimes mar- riage causes big problems. 5 Mrs. Wasliem toasts her first year. 6 Miss Taylor takes care of first year duties. llonir: l'yL'OI'lOllllL,i 33 I' J -9' -QQ 31' .

Mr. Russell Dowell came to Ruskin in 1953. During his 25 years, he has served as basketball coach, from 1953-1963, lead- ing the Eagles to second place in the Mid- West Conference in 1959, and as a physi- cal education teacher. Ruskin's Multi-Purpose Physical Educa- tion Room has been anxiously awaited for since the first plans were made. Early in the year, Mrs. Shirley France, depart- ment member, said,'6I'll be happy when it,s complete. lt'll give us much more room. The new room, consisting of a tile-iloored basketball court, three hand- ball courts, and a pole-vaulting area, is ex- pected to benefit the physical education department greatly. 1 Mr. Alford looks over daily schedules. 2 Mr. Beeson shows authority in P.E. 3 Mrs. France surveys coed classes. 4 g'By jove!

There were el- even courses offered in the Foreign Langu- age Department, ranging from elementary travel to advanced follow-up courses.

When notified she had received the award, Mrs. Briggs reacted with surprise and happiness. Alongside Mrs. Briggs in the drama de- partment is Miss Verna Page, leading the debate teams. When asked what debate is she replied, Debate is a logical organiza- tion of arguments to support one side of a claim. Assisting novice photographers at Rusk- in is Mr. Chris Williams. Teaching at Rusk- in only two years, Mr. Williams has helped district high schools-Ruskin and Hickman Mills-participate in photography classes together. Asked how photography is related to art, Mr. Williams answered, A good photo grapher doesn,t let the camera take the picture. He creates the picture in his heart. Instructing future artists at Ruskin are Mr. Irshel Hocker, Mr. Michael Ferman, and Miss Germaine Gaines. They teach classes in Art Foundations, Painting, Com- mercial Art, and Sculpture. 1 That's great, Carol.

Look- ing for Mr. Goodbar and The Other Side of Midnight are two of the movies taken from novels of the same name. ln both cases, the books faired much better than the shows. Star Wars phe- nomenal success should be attributed to simple good vs. evil theme and the well executed effects presented. Close Encounters of the Third Kind furthers special effects to unbelievable propor- tions. The only question now is, how to outdo Close Encounters. With the promise of holograms in the near future of cinema, the possibilities are endless.

Q A am Mike Carter Bennie Cates Peggy Chatham Whatis that buzzing in the library? Busy workers? Maybe, but a better guess would probably be the newly installed library secu- rity system. Due to the hundreds of books taken from the library last year, precautionary measures had to be taken. The system works by installing activated plates in all the books in the library. If a book has not been checked out and de-activated, it sets off an alarm as one exits the library, thus Hremindingn them to check out the book. It will cut down the amount of books taken, im- menselyf, states one library aid. '4Of course, there are a few kinks to work out. Every once in a while, an innocent passer-by gets buzzed.

Early in 1979 a squat and ungainly-looking craft known as a space shuttle will open up a new age in space exploration-the era of the re-usable spacecraft-by taking its first roundtrip around the Earth and Back. The 6.9 billion dollar shuttle program began with the Enter- prise borne aloft on top of a Boeing 747. In later trials the shuttle was landed independantly by a crew of astronauts. Eventually the United States, Enterprise will be making regular runs into space, as will its sister ship, OV102. Taking off like rock- ets and landing like planes they are expected to ferry people and equipment into orbit to repair sattellites, conduct experiments, and even carry out manufacturing activities in space. rs work. 4 ,. r , , , ?' t fi' I X 7 ' I J' rr ' wif., W ' ' ,' 131, '4 J.

Nuclear power verses solar power is one such question. But more to immediate action Americans became energy con-Q scious. Even though balking at some of Carter's proposals, such as gas guzzler tax on big cars, many Americans added insulation, weath- er stripping, and wood-burning stoves to their homes-and high mileage cars to the streets. Demand for solar energy heaters is dou bling every nine months. Exxon Corporation is even already pre- dicting that gasoline consumption will begin declining some time after 1980. The energy issue finally has a place on the national agenda- something accomplished by Carter that has eluded every other President. But long range decisions must be made also, or else today's youth may not need any long range plans. 1 smnmnsumeamnm Q .f era 9 ar. Sophomores participate in drivers education.

T ,ri ff 'A G 'V , ' 91, y A ,Wa if 'ZMJ' I X it ' Discriminating Against the Majorit A new issue came up before the people, and the Supreme Court: the allegations of reverse discrimination against whites. Allan Bakke was a California engineer when he decided, five years ago, to become a doctor. He applied twice to the University of California's medical school at Davis and was twice rejected. Learning that his test scores were higher than most of the accepted minority students, Bakke sued-charging the school with using re- verse discrimination against him because he was white. The Supreme Court will have to decide whether affirmative-ao tion programs-designed to improve opportunities for racial mi- norities and women-are constitutional if the programs unfairly penalize white men. Are the affirmative-action programs discriminative in them- selves? The Allan Bakke case may prove to be the most important civil-rights case of the decade. ,fiff ,Ji fffigr r Je ff 4 Q, uf ,Q H- 4, ,ry 1- 21' 'fwfr' ' W ,V g ,ff 1' ' .i tl! aff? ,, , f W Becky Jackson Michelle Jackson Linda Hulett Cheryl Hutson Les Hunt Deanna Irving f f 4 01:4 .

Silver-haired Steve Martin, 32, became one of the country's hottest comics, stumbling, smiling, and stroking his banjo to fame. First making a name for himself on the Tonight show, then' in spot appearances on Saturday Night Live, his name became a class- room word. After the release of his chart-climbing album Let's Get Smalln, one could hear its lines repeated word for word around Rus- kin. Steve Excuuuuuuusse Me Martin studied philosophy for three years at Long Beach State before getting happy feet . But he still enjoys pondering philosophical problems. I know all the important ethical questionsf' he tells his audiences, like is it o.k. to yell movie in a crowded firehousef' Only Steve Martin can be the philosopher he is. A day without sunshine is like . . . nightv and always take a litter bag in your car, it doesn't take up much room, if it gets full you can just toss it out the window.

An End to Missouri's Blues Local voters turned out in a record amount November 8, 1977, for a special election to repeal Missouri's 150-year-old Blue Law. In Jackson County, the Blue Law, which had banned Sunday sales of nonessential items, was repealed by a nearly 2 to l margin. A majority of Ruskin students and teachers supported the re- peal. Passage ofthe repeal put the local Missouri merchants on an equal footing with the nearby Kansas communities and shopping centers, which for several years had been getting millions of' dol- lars in tax receipts from Missourians crossing the state line for Sunday shopping. The repeal ofthe Blue Law proved very useful for students and teachers who often only have weekends to do their shopping. Fur- thermore, many area high schools may be operating under larger budgets in the future because of the increase in Missouri's tax rev- enues. Yvette Gonzales shows precision serving.

Jeanette Davidson Kim Davis Sonya Davis egends Live on The country mourned over the grievous death of Elvis Presley and Bing Crosby in 1977. Young and old alike were saddened over the loss of these great talents. Elvis Presley is often credited with starting a new rock era. The famous Elvis rocked his way to popularity as a young man of 21 and his fame survived a war and 20 long years that saw the coming and going of many singing artists. Through billion sellers such as Hound Dogi' and Jailhouse Rock , Elvis will live in the memo- ries of millions forever. A whole different style of singing propelled Bing Crosby into fame and fortune. Bing crooned his Way into the hearts of three generations of fans. The holiday season will not be the same for many people without him to sing Pm Dreaming of a White Christ mas.

W. y P Curtis Foster David Foster Tamara Foster Scott Foy ,J ww Scott Fraction Troy Fraction William Frazier Pam Friesen a the Force Be with You There must have been many uforcesi' at work when George Lucas wrote and produced the blockbuster movie i'Star Warsw. An immediate sellout in every town, Star Wars became the biggest movie of 1977, grossing over S400 million. The story itself was simpleg a young man bored with life on the farm gets wrapped up in the cause and becomes an interna- tional hero. The big crowd drawer was the tremendous visual im- pact. Jumps into hyperspace and deadly light-lasers left movie goers dreaming of intergalactic battles and travel at the speed of light. lnevitably springing from the biggest movie of the year was the biggest craze of the year. Santa received many requests for the Darth Vader dolls and Force beams. Manufacturers seeking to cash in on the Star Wars fame and get their share of the millions couldn't produce toys fast enough to fill the orders. So, any aspiring young producer looking to create a smash film should examine the ingredients of this film and may the force be with youf, wif Rochelle Ryan and Laura Rochelle are caught in the act.

J. Joey Birchard, keeps spirits high on the morning announce- ITl6I1tS. lnth Innlng Woes For a second straight year, Gctober brought controversy to Ruskin classrooms. What were the teachers and students taking time out to debate on? The Kansas City Royalls loss to the New York Yankees in the American League Playoffs. ln an impressive seasonal showing, the Royals pulled away from the four team seasaw for first place in late June to capture their second divisional title. Moreover, they won more games than any other team in the majors, notching 102 victories against 60 defeats But in the championship series, as in 1976, they faltered. Again it was New York in the ninth inning of thc fifth and final game who won the chance to compete in the World Series. Try- ing to protect a 3-2 lead, manager Whitey Herzog waved in his pitching ace, Dennis Leonard. Leonard didn't stick around for all three outs, and the Royals lost by a heart-breaking 5-3 margin. Fans at the game and in front of their television sets were pre- paring for a night of celebration until Kansas City's ninth inning nightmare. The next day, Herzogis strategy and the Royal's unabil- ity to win the big one came under fire. Eventually though, the de- bates simmered down, and Ruskinites sat back and waited for the next year.

Although America seemed to be restoring its faith in government, Washington had its problems. Koreagate began its steamroll into what may boil into a Congressional Watergate. The United States may give up the Panama Canal. After only one complete year in office, some are predicting only one term for President Jimmy Carter. And of course, 1977 brought another resignation, that of Bert Lance. September's end brought Lance's decision: he would call it quits after months ofturmoil from critics. Resigning his post as director ofthe Office of Management and Budget, he was ending his short-lived stay in Washington, to which he had come as Car- ter's first Cabinet choice. Nationwide, Lance was attacked by the news media for questionable bank practices and political activities, including bank overdrafts and his casual use ofthe National Bank of Georgia's plane-for both his and Jimmy Carter's political purposes. ln the end though, strongly reminiscent of the Nixon affair, President Carter insisted his Georgian friend had done nothing wrong.

That was mostly Anwar Sadat's doing, but the President obviously would be a beneficiary. But by the end ofthe year, things began to come around. Israel's Menahem Begin flew to Washington to consult with.President Carter on the Cairo peace conference. Sadat, and even the Russians and Sy rians sent word that they might yet attend the Geneva talks that Carter had been urging r from the start. Sadat's bold step took much initiative away from the United States in the Mideast negotiations. Rather than the comprehen- sive process Carter was pushing for, the Egyptians' and Israelis were negotiating mostly with each other. Washington 's new role was to ensure that they kept talking. to bolster Sadatfs initia- tives, urge Israel to be forthcoming and lobby the Russians and Arabs to join the dialogue toward an eventual overall agreement. 3 5 Top 0' the morning to ye, says Tim Putthoff.

Nothing is sacred. Homosexuality, Wife beating, child-abuse, incest, babies being bom right on the screen, living together, violence-all are subjects that are presen- ted every week before, during, and after family hour. 'lSoap, Family, Three's Company, and Fish,' are a few ofthe programs dealing in these controversial issues. Of course, the classic, HAH in the Familyf' as well as other long playing series are still around, too, contributing their part to the long list of touchy subjects. The success of these shows seems to mean the public Wants to hear about these matters, and possibly learn and understand what is going on in their world. But not all the programs are adverse, ullappy Days, 'lLaveme and Shirleyf, Little House on the Prairief, and other less con- troversial programs are still getting high ratings.

Football Posts 3-1 Season The Junior Varsity football team ended their season with three victories and one defeat, with the help of their coaches, Mr. Michael Noland and Mr. John Beeson. There were many things accomplished this year, but the most important one was the players working together as a team. When the coaches choose players for the team they look for certain qualities. When Coach Noland was asked what type of athlete he looks for to be a player, he replied, A person with character, be- cause football doesn't build character, it eliminates those without itf' 1 But I told the bus driver not to leave,', says Mr. Harper. 2 Coach Gunther sends another play in. 3 1977-1978 Junior Backs. 4 Ruskin charges onward to the goalline. 5 Facemask penalty coming up for Lee's Summit. 6. 1977- 1978 Junior Linemen.

High finishes in the Ruskin, Park Hill, South East, Southern Missouri West, and another invitationals were good enough to earn the team a second place finish in Conference and third in District. But the Ruskin tracksters accomplished much more than this. They also sent two run- ners, Frank Hood, Senior, and Kevin Clark, Junior, to the State meet. Their dedication and effort brought much rec- ognition and pride to Ruskin. Many school and class records, which have stood for years, were broken by both in- dividual and team efforts. Coach Alford attributed the over all success to many hours of hard work and much dedication from the athletes. 1 Kirby Clark runs for the finish. 2 Gary Siwiec can't believe the race is finally over. 3 Condi- tioning is important for Ruskin Cross Country members. 4 Relaxation is earned by star runner Frank Hood. 5 Front row, left to right: Jeff Clark, Fred Groh, Dean Lewis, Chris Gish, and manager Tom Hood.

The girls travelled to the University of Missouri at Columbia to participate in a summer camp. It was their first year to attend a cheerleading camp and it proved to be quite a big success as they were awarded two blue ribbons, two red rib- bons, a first place ribbon for a pom pon dance, as well as the spirit stick which they won three out of four days enabling them to bring it home. They could be found cheering at all the girls volleyball games and wrestling matches.

The drill team went to camp in Spring- field where the competition was heavy but the Ruskin Diggers pulled through placing 10th among over 75 schools. The Diggers also returned with over 110 ribbons for various accomplishments achieved at camp and again brought home the spirit pon-poms. The Diggers performed to a variety of songs which included Riders to the Starsn Crocodile Rock , Boogie Nightsv, The Dude , and '4Keep Pushing. Kim Perkins, captain, summed up the year by saying I think for a new squad we did great. I mean, it is not every yaer that a drill team with 17 new girls can be invited to dance at a college like U.M.K.C. and please the audience? 1 'fWould you hurry and send that ripple says Kelley McClure. 2 Senior Co-Captain, Denise Whitfield waits for the music to start. 3 Diggers 77-78 Front row: Julie Millett, Janice Heffron, Gwen Gunnells, Denise Whitfield, Kim Perkins, Pam Perkins, Lisa Perry, Shannon Luthy.

Although Ruskin was defeated by the William Chrisman Bears on Homecoming night, by a score of 36 to 18, this did little to daunt the spirit. Friday night was just the climax of events which start from the first brainstorms for floats. This year's theme was Ruskin,s World of Make- Believe , and so it appeared as if Ruskin had been turned into a different world. During the week of Homecoming, each day a different activity took place mak- ing Spirit Week a success. The homecoming dance which tradi- tionally is held after the game, was held one night later, in order that more people might attend. A live band, Shooting Stars, was entertainment this year, and a large and pleased crowd turned out for the dance. As the last quarter approached Seniors left early, as tradition has it, and minds reflected, not on a losing game, but on an evening of Make-Believe. 1 An eagle soars high, presiding over all parade activities 2 The band float anticipates the trip to the Rose Bowl 3 The Mirage Staff portrays their true ambitions 4 The Senior Class float, Star Wars, took first place and tied for the Grand Marshall trophy 5 A giant skunk hitches a ride on the French Club Float 6 Joel Elmer concentrates on driving the Math Club float 7 Hansel and Gretel prepare to bake the Bears for the German Club 8 The band strides in tradi- tional form for the Homecoming parade.

For a money raising project they sold scholastic t-shirts, ranging from Maxwell's differential equations to Chopin. While Math Club grew to its largest membership in years, it engaged in interesting field trips such as one to the Kansas City Planet- arium. Mr. Ernest Hester sponsored the club, serving as officers were Joel Elmer, president, Mike Moeller, vice-president, R.T. Steely, secretary-treasurer, and Donna Glidewell, reporter. The horsemanship club celebrated its fourth year. Although the club had not grown in size, the enthusiastic members were still there. Once again, with the help of President Diana Meyers, and sponsors Mr. Noland and Mr. Hall, the Ruskin Ri- ders contributed their fair share to the Rus kin homecoming Parade. 1 For the fifth time, Mr. Hester tries to explain the theory of relativity. 2 Math Club meetings had a hard time keeping Jeff Schuster's attent- ion. 3 To become a Ruskin Rider, utmost at- tention is required. 4 My calculator is too better than yoursln 5 President Joel Elmer struggles to bring law and order to the Math Club. 6 Lois Hardy awaits saddling instruct- ions.

R.A.T.A.P., Ruskin Administrators, Teachers, and Parents, is a non-profit or- ganization which attempts to aid Ruskin and its students wherever needed. RATAP sponsored the Senior Party, Open House, and a Spring Tea for the faculty as Well as many other services for Ruskin. With a membership of 242, the organization aided teachers, students, and administrators in various needs during the year. Led by Pres- ident Shirley Terry, they put in many long hours all for the people they care about most, we at Ruskin. l Mrs. Mason supports Ruskin activities by scll- ing stationery. 2 What'll1t hr- Mac? 3 Mrs. Tin- dle sells concessions to airl the Wrestling tcain. 4 R.A.T.A.P. cnters a Float in the Homecoming Parade. 5 'LPlain or 'buttc1wl, asks Ma lindlc. 6 WI can't bcljcvc shc said thatf' say s Mrs. lvlason. l'i,rr,1pl5r-risltrsf Mrs Joyce Briggs Mrs Briggs gets into the winter play, 'tArsen1c and Old Lace? The Envelope Please . . . The winner is Mrs. Joyce Briggs, state- wide uoutstanding drama teacher ofthe year! Just as a motion picture director may receive the Oscar for his direction of an award-winning film, a drama teacher can be given a prestigious award for his encouragement to nervous Stars, last mih- ute changes for the play, and prompts to those who forget. It is no surprise that Mrs. Briggs was the recipient of the honorary award, given by the Speech and Theater Association of Missouri. She has advised students in the classroom, on the stage, and behind the scenes for twelve years. To summarize how they all felt, one of her students said, The years of her life she's given us have finally paid off. What she's given us can't be taken away. 4'She taught us about more than the- ater. She taught us to be better people. I guess that's what teaching's all about. Mrs Briggs begins each day with a smile The cast receives expert instruction from Mrs Briggs on the right way to toast the winter play.

It was a year of firsts for the Drama and Choral Departments at Ruskin. The first-ever Musical Revue was presented November 18-19 in the cafeteria. The lack of facili- ties forced the production into the cafete- ria, thus creating a good situation to put on a dinner playhouse. A professionally catered dinner was presented before the show. A cost of 33.50 brought you a dinner and a great shovv right to your very own seat. The cuttings from the Musicals 'gOklahoma, Sound of Music, King and If and g'South Pacificf, were presented. Mrs. Joyce Briggs, Drama Di- rector, commented on the Revue, uThe overall support received was tremendous from everybody.

Under the direction of Mrs. Joyce Briggs, the play was a big success. This year the play had two casts.

Sounds 0 Music Orchestra students, new and old, must pluck and pick until the right notes are acquired. There to lend them a helping hand is director Mrs. Tingler. Orchestra, considered a fine art, is dif- ferent from many other classes offered due to the fact that it requires no notes, except for the ones on the sheet music. After many hours of trial and error, and a few wrong notes, orchestra members produce a melodious outcome. Speech and Debate complemented our award winning Drama Department. Under the faculty supervison of Miss Verna Page, the squad brought home many awards. l Concentration and hard work are put into a perfected piece of music. 2 A one and a two and a three. 3 Tim Buie swears this is the paper Miss Page told him to read. 4 Speech requires Richard Valentines utmost attention. 5 Mike Hinkley and Brian Jundeen contribute their part to concert Orchestra: 6 Mrs. Tingler de- mands quiet before beginning. 7 Becky Peterson and Dana George plan the next Debate format.

On January 2 1978 a dream not only for Ruskin High School, but the entire Kansas City Area came true. That dream was to see the West Point colors of the Ruskin Golden Eagle Marching Band on the three major television networks. Over 40,000 dollars was raised for the 10 day trip that started Christmas day. While on the way to Pasadena, California, the home of the 92nd annual Tournament of Roses Parade, the Band stopped in Las Vegas and saw the Liberace Show, not to men- tion a short stay at the Grand Canyon and marching in the Disney Parade. When Jan- uary 2nd rolled around, the band was up at 4 a.m. sharp and on their way to Pas- adena for the nine o'clock starting time. At approximately 9:47, the playing of Eagle Squadron came sounding through the T.V. set marking the entry of the band. As the colors of the band passed the reviewing stand, a tingling sensation rolled up our backs. Yes, California Here We Come ............,..,..,...... 1 The proud colors ofthe Blue and Gold march on. 2 The Kodak float was voted Number one by the judges. 3 Ruskin proudly passes by the reviewing stand. 4 Some of the many sights seen on the way to Pasadena Band 209 ,. nv- 0- eu f-42 , . , X.. x. , , - ..vY -, ' A-Q.- V 1 ,Q 'Y . :g 1- .

A new Wurlitzer organ was dedicated to Mrs. Marjorie Langford, who completed her thirty-third year of service at Ruskin. A plaque was put on the organ, which will be put in the new auditorium. Another addition was the purchase on new risers. The risers are steel reenforced with carpet- ing and have a supporting backbone. Along with the traditional Christmas Vespers, were the Spring and Fall concerts A Gold Choir Clinic was held in February hosting tive of the six Medium Six Subur- ban Conference Schools. The clinic was preceded by contest and followed by bac- calaureate and graduation ceremonies. There were a variety of classes offered at Ruskin for choir students. Along with the Gold Choir, Treble Choir, and Blue Choir, a new class, the Chamber Choir, was formed. Also adding a great sound to the concerts were the early morn- ingi' groups, the Rulers, Rulettes, and Senior Men's Quartet. Mr. Hamble was helped through the year by Mrs. Nancy Redman, accompianist Also during the year, the choirs catered to Miss Kathy Wallis, doing her student teaching here at Ruskin. 1 1977-78 Rulers and Girls Treble Choir. 2 Brad Bullard, and Peterie make Peter, Paul and Mary look bad. 3 197 7-78 Chamber Choir. 4 Wurlitzer organ purchased by 1976-77 Student Council.

The ed- itorial is the voice of the newspaper. Every good journalist knows what it takes to put out a good newspaper, as every Professional Writing student learned by putting out seven issues of the Ruskin Hi-Light. From the very first day of the school year until the last, each reporter had these facts hammered at him through the unique talent of sponsor Mr. Arch Wrisinger. By year's end every member of the staff knew that Mr. Wrisingerls con- stant harping to rewrite and rewrite was that vital ingredient that had given the Hi-Light its stature year end and year out. Whether it was traveling to Westport to check out the Saturday night scene or staying at school until 8 p.m. on a Sunday evening, Ruskinls writers knew what it took to be professional writersf, Above everything else, though they learned one simple trutha-never leave out the 5 w's in a lead. l Tim Buie'?

Itls a yearbookg a yearbook of the stu- dents, by the students, and for the stu- dents. Last yearls yearbook won First Hon ors at Inter-Collegiate Press and this year its aims were set just as high, but with one exception. It doesnlt really matter if we get awards as long as it is something that everyone likes. Thatls our main concern, explains Abbie Melton, editor. The past two years the yearbook has been centered around anniversaries, first the bicentennial, then the 75th anniver- sary of Ruskin. This year's book had a face lift, making a book with more levity. The movie theme seems to provide a var- iety that has been lacking the past two years. Miss Mary Haney, the advisor, Perry Hunter, graphics editor, Steve Perkins, copy editor, Abbie Melton, and a deter- mined staff worked together to create a lasting impression of the year, not just a mirage. l I thought editors didn't have to know how to type,', says Editor Abbie Melton. 2 'Alf you don't like it just say so, . .then you can write it,', ra- tionalizes Steve Perkins. 3 Can't you figure out why that pencil won't write, Joel Elmer? 4 I didn't know they could print that in yearbooksf' says Lori Cooper. 5 Studentfteacher relations are put on the line at deadline time.
